Such a cosy and welcoming place with really fantastic music, perfect for the vibes of the place. Also the bartender is really lovely, he has really friendly eyes. I will recommend and come back for sure

Popped in here as we were eating at a nearby restaurant. Good selection of drinks on offer, served by very friendly staff. Did not eat, but the food others were tucking into looked very nice. Will certainly visit again if in the area.

I went here about a year ago on a trip through the UK with my girlfriend; we stopped in on a recommendation from a local, and it was absolutely worth it. I ordered the vegetarian fajitas paired with an Irn Bru soda and it was by far one of the best meals I've ever had. Friendly staff, comfortable atmosphere, fair prices. My only regret is that I couldn't stay long enough to go back for more!

Great food and good selection of drinks. Nice function room and very friendly atmosphere and staff. Main bar area is cool and busy enough to feel like a good night out rather than just a local bar.

A very nice cozy pub. Burger was yummy. Haggis very tasty. They have a tomato and chorizo bruschetta as a starter that was very good.

We used the Mockingbird function room for a stag party and staff were extremely helpful. The buffet was excellent value for money and they gave us free reign with music and decorations. The bar staff were friendly and helpful and very tolerant of our drunken friend. I would highly recommend using this function room or going to the bar for food because what we had in the buffet was very tasty

Was in here for a private function in the room upstairs. Thought the bar was really cool, upstairs room is too and has table football plus sound system to play your own music. My only gripe was the kitchen is also upstairs and there was a really strong meat smell which was a bit rank. Maybe just a one off and definately would go back.

Decent food selection, decent drink selection. Could do with a bit more staffing when things get busy, but overall a lovely wee local pub.
